Share of unoccupied SLSP dwellings

The indicator relates the number of public dwellings owned by one of the public service housing corporations (PSHCs) that are not rented to all dwellings owned by the PSHCs. This is in fact the following fraction: (sum of ‘unleased but rentable dwellings’ and ‘unleased and non-rentable dwellings’)/(sum of ‘leased dwellings’, ‘unleased but rentable dwellings’ and ‘unleased and non-rentable dwellings’). SLSPs rent several types of housing: ‘social’ housing, ‘medium’ housing, ‘integration’ housing, ‘transit’ housing, ‘equilibrium rent’ housing and ‘student’ housing. Access and rental conditions vary from one type to another. Note that only dwellings owned and managed by SLSPs are counted here. Other public operators (CPAS, municipalities, AIS, etc.) also rent accommodation for similar groups. Break in series: Following a transfer of responsibility for housing to the German-speaking Community, housing on its territory is not included in the SWL statistics as of 1/1/2021 and will no longer be included in the future. This implies a decrease in numbers and proportions on the aggregates including the 9 German-speaking municipalities.
